*grabs you and shakes you but gently cause I love you* you do not need to be ‘called’ to worship the gods. Just worship. Please just worship if it is what your heart wants.

Currently have an avocado pit set up that I'm trying to sprout as a devotional act for Aphrodite, hopefully it'll take and I'll have a nice little plant for her before long.
#I always feel compelled to keep my avocado pits for some reason#and I associate them with Aphrodite since they have a reputation as aphrodisiacs#so this seemed perfect

🪙🎲🛞 e-offering for Tyche 🛞🎲🪙
O goddess of variable fortune, you I seek to please With gifts of liquor, smoke, and oils, and with my prayers appease; Proffering praise in faith to you, your servant humbly pleads O bounteous and righteous one, of you I ask, unbend The unbalanced paths of my late fortunes, and in fairness them amend; Direct me now to blessed roads and my steps to bounty send.

For the Lady Aphrodite Devotees and worshippers, I come bearing gifts!!
I decided to take some photos from around apart of my property of things that reminded me of Her- and I just felt an overwhelming need to share them!
So please feel free to use any of these as you wish! Be it, as an offering, part of a digital altar, or just something that reminds you of her, please use them! (And yes you’re allowed to post them)

To you I sing, O Amber-radiant Hestia, Beloved eldest sister of Zeus Almighty. Hestia, you of the golden lamp The sooty hearth, the brazen tripod Protector of my home and my family.
To you I pray, divine goddess of my home. Waking men with the crow of thy cock Oemethese. The watcher of children in home and school The lead cook in the kitchen foreseeing my meals And the stabilizer of my roof, rafters and walls.
For me of Hestia, you are everything. For without thee, homeless I would be. Without thee I would have no light at night Nor hearth fire to cook my meals on Nor light in my home to guide me at night.
For all this and more, O daughter of Rhea, I give thinks to you blessed Hestia. For the food I eat each night I give thanks. For the flame that lights my home, I give thanks. For the heart heat to keep me warm. I give thanks.

I missed my goal by 45 minutes. Dang! Oh well. So here is Hestia, next on my list. She is based on 3 sources: The famous Vesta Giustiniani statue in Rome (Yeah, I know, not truly Greek but it's still my favorite statue of her counterpart.) The textile pattern is loosely derived from the Peleus Wedding dinos (which is my favorite pottery depiction of Hesta, as limited as it is). Even though Hestia is in the back of Demeter and hard to see, I was able to make out some details of the dress. The last reference comes from "divine intervention" and I will say nothing more than that. The tripod is a reconstruction of one from the Delfi Museum. The cock motif is based on a much lesser-known sacred story of Hestia coming from Korfu and the villages around Igoumenitsa. The necklace and bracelets are loosely based on artifacts from the National Museum. As to the dress color, some may be questioning why she is not wearing white: primarily because I never see Hestia dressed in white. Second, the Ancient Greeks never attributed WHITE with Virginity. That came actually came later on in history.
